His rep has denied he's dating Made In Chelsea star Caggie Dunlop but it seems Harry Styles may have set his sights on someone more familiar - the heart-throb is said to be back in touch with ex-girlfriend Caroline Flack.
Harry and cougar Caroline split in January this year after a brief fling but it seems the One Direction warbler may be interested in reigniting the pair's former flame.
The boyband star was rewarded with some time off by music bosses after working hard to continue their success in America and Harry has been using his free time to text TV host Caroline.
A source told The Sun: "Harry has never quite got over what he had with Caroline. They had such fun together. He sent her a few texts just to test the water as a lot has happened since they were together - particularly Harry being linked to a series of girls. She's also a touch wary because of the abuse she got last time for dating him."
Speculation surrounding the pop hunk's love life mounted after he was seen looking close to Made In Chelsea reality star Caggie at a London nightspot last Thursday but his representative was quick to deny the pair was an item.
A spokesperson told the Sunday Mirror: "Harry and Caggie are not dating and are not romantically involved."
